Custom AssembliesM12/M8 industrial circular connector adaptors for field-wiring and device connectivity in automation and process control applications.
ConnectorsEngineered for continuous operation at 150°C and above, or in chemically aggressive settings where standard insulation fails. We carry the full spectrum — from silicone and fluoropolymer wire to extreme-duty fiberglass and mica-glass constructions.
PTFE and PFA rated to 250°C; FEP to 200°C. Exceptional chemical inertness and dielectric strength. Silver- or nickel-plated conductors standard for oxidation protection at elevated temperatures.
Up to 250°CRated 150°C–200°C with an exceptionally tight bend radius. Available with fiberglass braid jacket (SF-2 / SGI) for added cut and abrasion resistance in industrial machinery and heating element applications.
Up to 200°CTGGT construction rated to 250°C for ovens and kilns. Mica-glass (MG) wire rated 450°C–538°C for blast furnaces and aerospace. Ceramic fiber constructions available for applications exceeding 1,000°C.
Up to 1,000°C+Halar (ECTFE), PVDF, and specialized PVC jackets engineered for exposure to acids, solvents, oils, and caustic washdown environments. Ideal for food & beverage, pharmaceutical, and chemical processing.
Caustic / ChemicalHigh-temperature wire and cable is defined as continuous operation at 150°C (302°F) and above. Selecting the right product means balancing temperature peak, mechanical ruggedness, flexibility, and chemical or moisture exposure. Below is a full breakdown of what we carry and how each type performs.
Fluoropolymers deliver the best combination of high-temperature survival, extreme chemical resistance, and excellent electrical properties.
Incredible chemical inertness and excellent dielectric strength. Extruded or taped construction; less flexible in large sizes.
Melt-processable — extruded in continuous seamless lengths. Superior mechanical strength at high temperatures versus PTFE.
Highly transparent, extremely chemical resistant, and more cost-effective than PTFE/PFA. Excellent fluid resistance.
Mechanically tough with radiation resistance and high-energy impact strength. A staple in aerospace and transit applications.
When a high-temperature application requires a tight bend radius or frequent movement, silicone is the go-to material.
Extremely flexible and soft with good moisture resistance. Low tear resistance — best used in protected or stationary runs.
Fiberglass outer braid over the silicone core adds mechanical protection against cuts, abrasion, and fraying. Ideal for industrial machinery and heating elements.
For environments that exceed the limits of plastics and rubbers, texturized glass or ceramic fibers are the only option.
PTFE tape insulation with dual fiberglass braids and high-temp saturate. Widely used in ovens, kilns, and heavy industrial equipment.
Mica tape over conductor sealed with fiberglass braid. Essential for blast furnaces, extreme processing, and aerospace components.
Specialized thermocouples, instrumentation, and kiln zone wiring where virtually no other material survives.
Standard bare copper oxidizes rapidly at elevated temperatures. High-temperature cables require specialized conductor platings — here's how to match them to your application.
| Plating Type | Max Continuous Temp | Best Used For |
|---|---|---|
| Tin-Plated Copper | Up to 150°C | Budget-friendly mid-temperature applications |
| Silver-Plated Copper | Up to 200°C | Excellent conductivity — pairs perfectly with FEP and PTFE |
| Nickel-Plated Copper | Up to 250°C – 450°C | High-heat resistance, prevents oxidation at extreme levels |
| Pure Nickel / Stainless Steel Alloys | 600°C+ | Reserved for extreme heat applications (Mica-Glass / Ceramic) |
Every high-temperature and caustic-environment cable listed above can be custom manufactured to your exact specification — including non-standard conductor counts, custom shielding configurations (foil, braid, or combination), specialty jacket compounds, and unique mechanical requirements. No standard catalog number required.
We also manufacture direct equals and functional equivalents to products from Belden, Alpha Wire, and virtually any other wire and cable manufacturer — at competitive pricing and often with faster lead times.
